4 apps to help your Mac run better

"To be, or not to be?" Sorry, Hamlet — that's not the question anymore. In this digital day and age, it's more like, "Why doesn't Apple offer better solutions for cloud storage, data synchronization, and video downloading on Macs?"

Created by Eltima Software, the bundle includes four top apps that'll enhance your Mac's already-pretty-decent functionality without breaking the bank. We normally sell the whole set for $19.99 — a fraction of its $124.80 MSRP — but for a limited time, you can score it for an even better price.

You'll (finally) be able to keep tabs on all your files at once when you install CloudMounter, a tool that increases your device's storage by mounting cloud solutions right on your hard drive. (In layman's terms, it plops popular cloud services — Dropbox, Amazon S3, and Google Drive, for instance — onto your computer as local disks for easy access. That's right — no more switching between apps, tabs, and windows.) You can manage your cloud storage directly through Finder, and rest assured that your data is safe thanks to advanced encryption.

Got other, non-Apple devices to manage, too? SyncMate 7 was made just for you. SyncMate is an all-in-one tool that lets you synchronize your contacts, iTunes tracks, pictures, calendars, and other files between your Mac and platforms like Android, iCloud and Dropbox; you can view your data on one convenient interface without jumping between devices. Included in the Expert License are an auto-synching feature, backups, and other perks that'll keep your files safe and up to date.

Buffering, be gone: With Airy, a premium YouTube downloader for Mac, you can save video and audio files from the popular site directly onto your computer for easy HD and ultra-HD viewing. It integrates into your browser for simple, one-click video downloads, and stores files in the format(s) and resolution(s) of your choosing.

You've got another browser-integrated downloader option in the form of VideoDuke, which can not only save YouTube videos but complete channels and playlists, too. It also includes a feature that converts videos to MP3 files, as well as in-app access to YouTube, Vimeo, and Dailymotion for convenient viewing.
